The 12th Poll
A nationwide, fan-powered ranking of FBS college football teams.
Every week, fans across the country submit their own Top 25. Each ballot is converted into points (25 for 1st, down to 1 for 25th), and combined into a single, transparent, public ranking.
Public, Not Private
Traditional polls rely on a small group of voters. The 12th Poll opens the process to the entire nation— fans, alumni, analysts, and anyone who loves the sport.
Transparent Scoring
Each rank is worth a fixed number of points— 25 for 1st place, 24 for 2nd, down to 1 for 25th. No bias, no weighting, no secret formulas.
Nationwide Voices
With ballots coming from across the FBS landscape, the result is a ranking shaped by many perspectives— not just one region or conference.
